Authored by Mark Hefflinger on November 28, 2005 - 10:38am.
Alviso, Calif. - TiVo announced on Monday that it plans to launch a service in the spring of 2006 that will let its 3 million subscribers search a library of on-demand ads, and also allow advertisers to target ads based on the interests users submit in personal profiles. TiVo said it partnered with advertising agencies including Interpublic Media, OMD, Starcom Mediavest Group and The Richards Group, as well as cable TV provider Comcast's advertising sales division on the new service. The opt-in service will let TiVo subscribers search for ads by category -- in sectors such as automotive, travel, telecommunications, and consumer packaged goods -- as well as by keyword.
